What a great day in the city at the Clarendon Hotel, Lux Central, & Postino Winecafe! Also, my photo of Henry Gray, and Bob Corritore is up on the wall at the Rhythm Room in Phoenix which is very exciting, so of course I had to stop in to commemorate the accomplishment! Style-wise, that day I recreated the awesome ‘hair pineapple’ style that I have seen on a few beauty blogs, and I think it turned out pretty cool! Pictured dining choices: breve iced coffee with one extra shot from Lux Central, 4 bruschetta selections from Postino, & a margarita from the Clarendon! All photos by MVHPhoto.

This headband is one of my favorite items in my collection of accessories–found it at a thrift shop on my 18th birthday! It’s handmade, bound by animal hide and reinforced by brass staples-I keep it in a special bag to protect it and only wear it yearly because it’s so delicate!Right click to view larger image!

This whole outfit did not even break a 20 dollar bill: now that’s how you shop! The pattern of the blouse reminds me of Donovan, I feel he would wear something similar which made it even more of a must-have for me. I love the nifty little tie that came with the shirt, but I outgrew my necktie phase back in middle school so I wrapped it into a bow instead!
